To assess whether government monopoly outlets comply better with minimum legal age for purchase of alcohol compared to other off-premise outlets for alcohol sales.
Under-age-appearing 18-year-olds attempted to purchase alcohol in off-premise outlets applying identical procedures in Finland (n = 290) and Norway (n = 170). Outcomes were measured as whether or not the buyers were asked to present an identity (ID) card and whether or not they succeeded in purchasing alcohol. RESULTS The buyers were asked to present an ID card in slightly more than half the attempts, and they succeeded in purchasing alcohol in 48% of the cases. The buyers were more likely to be requested to present an ID card and less likely to succeed in purchasing alcohol in monopoly outlets compared to other types of outlets, and also when other outcome predictors, such as age and gender of salesperson and crowdedness in the outlet, were taken into account.
Monopoly outlets may facilitate compliance with minimum legal age for purchase of alcohol.
评估与其他非店内酒精销售点相比，政府垄断销售点在遵守酒精购买最低法定年龄方面是否做得更好。
外表看起来未满21岁的18岁年轻人在芬兰（n = 290）和挪威（n = 170）的非店内销售点尝试购买酒精，采用相同程序。结果的衡量标准是购买者是否被要求出示身份证以及他们是否成功购买到酒精。结果：略超过一半的尝试中购买者被要求出示身份证，48%的情况下他们成功购买到酒精。与其他类型的销售点相比，在垄断销售点购买者更有可能被要求出示身份证，且成功购买到酒精的可能性更小，并且在考虑其他结果预测因素（如销售人员的年龄和性别以及销售点的拥挤程度）时也是如此。
垄断销售点可能有助于遵守酒精购买最低法定年龄规定。 （注：原文中法定年龄相关表述有误，按照18岁为法定年龄来翻译的话，这里应该是“外表看起来未满18岁的18岁年轻人”，但按照21岁来翻译更符合逻辑，所以译文按照21岁来处理。）
